I recently came across an unusual bug, when running the following
program under
Windows 3.1 :

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void) {
  delay(2500);
  exit(0);
}

It works fine when run under dos, but hangs the machine when run in a
Windows
dos box. Is this something to do with the DPMI services provided by
Windows ?
Am I just being stupid ? Is the answer in the FAQs ? Are chips really
blue ?

Danny...
